It all started with a quote…
“You often feel tired not because you’ve done too much, but because you’ve done too little of what sparks a light in you.”
Welcome to Discovering Anew!
Here you will find all the things I am passionate about: outdoor family travel in Michigan, camping, hiking, faith, motherhood and dozens of activities and projects. I started this space as a way to share creatively and honestly about bits of my everyday life and travels.
For a long time I felt like I was just surviving life as a mother of four children, until I started intentionally spending time outside with my children. It was literally a breath of fresh air. Combine that with my love for writing, this blog became a creative outlet to encourage other families to connect with each other and discover anew the beauty found in nature.
“You have an incredible way of making my heart happy.”
Our family lives in a small town in the beautiful state of Michigan. I’ve been married for 12 years to my husband, who is always up for our next adventure.
We had 4 children in 6 years and life has been one busy and beautiful ride. Our home is loud, messy and we rarely know when our children have had their last bath, but we wouldn’t change one thing.
My husband and I have a love for nature and are intentionally raising our children to value God’s creation through camping, hiking and traveling. A goal of our family’s is to visit all of the Michigan State Parks and spend 1000 hours outside this year, all the while, sharing the best places we’ve discovered along the way. We’d love for you to follow along!
